I was just flipping through the latest issue of JANE magazine, and had a funny thought...
You know those paper ads strategically placed in the magazines that seem to keep increasing in number?
As I flipped through the magazine several BUSINESS REPLY forms fell out and I was thinking, "These things are just like pop-up ads online!"
For example, a few of them read: Read More »
We wanted something quick and easy and close to the college, so we headed toward the golden arches.
We each placed our orders fairly quickly, but as soon as our orders were ready, all hell broke loose.
For one, they put all of our orders in one big bag. The fries appeared to have been dumped straight into the bag..there were maybe 10 fries in the carton. Every single order was made wrong - from onions and pickles on the sandwiches we had requested plain, to putting the wrong amount of food in the bag (they shorted us 1 burger and 1 chicken sandwich) Betweent the 4 of us, I think we went to the counter 5-6 times.

So, you just start college and go to the bookstore to buy your books.
"OH MY GOD! I didn't know they were going to be that much!"
That's what happened to me my first quarter in college.
Over the last year and a half, I've learned a few things about buying college textbooks. Here's a few tips from me!
1. Check with your professors about a month before your classes start. Find out the ISBN numbers for the textbooks, titles, etc. Read More »
Over the years I have struggled with my weight. I have found several things that work for me, and many that do not.
I have learned that the Adkins Diet is 100% successful in losing weight, but in the long run, it is NOT the answer to a healthy lifestyle. Infact, the purpose of Adkins is to cut out carbohydrates, when infact, the amount of food you should eat daily should be 70% carbs. High Blood pressure and heart problems are also associated with Adkins. Read More »
So, there has been much concern and many conflicting viewpoints on abortion today. Tons of people are saying that it should be illegal and few believe in the right to choose.
Personally, I believe a woman should have the right to have an abortion, up to a certain point. At just 9 weeks, a fetus develops eyelids and is able to 'see'. He/she also is able to recognize sounds and may begin to jump around. I do not agree with any abortions past 3 or 4 months. Read More »
A friend of mine posted this in his myspace blog, and thought it was kinda cool...do not know the source, so I put quotes around the whole thing anyway. Enjoy!
"These are mostly guidelines for dates etc, but can be applied to other circumstances. Do not:
1. Talk in a baby voice: Some people like that, but not many. In 90% of cases, it serves as a line distinguishing "cute" girls, and girls you would date. Read More »
So, have you ever thought about trying the Secret Shopping or Mystery Shopper things? Ya know, the ones where they pay you to shop at various places and then submit a detailed review for payment?
Well, about 90% of the ones I looked at online required credit card info and a "one-time" charge ranging from $20 - $60. I figured it was all a big scam and the way I saw it, probably wasn't worth it to give them money... Read More »
A sonnet I wrote for my boyfriend...
Forever
We met that night before the clock struck twelve.
The moon shone on your face so pure and white.
Within my heart I felt your soft words delve,
You spoke to me and sent my heart in flight.
You took my hand and led me to the door,
The rose you gave me that night I did save.
For in my mind you'll stay forever more.
A token of the brilliant love you gave. Read More »
